Yellow Colt (2013). Khoroldorj Choijoovanchig's touching debut feature tells the tale of Galt, an eight-year-old boy who, following the death of the uncle who adopted him, is taken back into his family home of nomads who make their living raising horses.

Remote Control (2013). Raised in a loveless and impoverished home, Tsog supports his family by reselling his neighbour's milk in the city, while frequently retreating from reality into the vivid world inside his head. After a senseless family row, he runs away and sets up home on the rooftop of a city apartment block, where he becomes obsessed with Anu, a young woman who seldom leaves her an apartment in the opposite building.
6pm (doors open). Screening starts 6.30pm
Before Rising Up the Rank (1965). The UK premiere of this vintage classic from Mongolia's national film studios Mongol Kino, Before Rising Up the Rank can be described as a "Silk Road movie". Set in the early 1900s, its quixotic trio of travellers, consisting of the Shaman Prince, the circus performer Boroldoi and tall and thin Doldoi, journey across a barren wilderness to the Winter Palace of the Bogd Khan in Ulaanbataar to sell fabrics, overcoming a series of colourful comic escapades, encounters and adversities en route.
